NARRAGANSETT--On Oct. 18 the town council scheduled a work session for Oct. 25 to discuss the plans for Canonchet Farm. The goal of Terrence Fleming's presentation before the council, according to Michael DeLuca of Narragansett's Planning Department was to "try and give more background and body to the overall recommendation of the planning board to the council." The town council will have the final say as to what becomes of the property.
In past meetings, a majority of members have favored less development to the leafy property.
The planning board did not accept the idea of providing camping facilities but called for some development, new trails, and elimination of invasive species. The board worked in recommendations presented by the Friends of Canonchet Farms.
